The condo was great! It definitely exceeded our expections! We had a great view of Kahaluu Beach Park from the lanai. We took the short walk across the street every morning to snorkel before the beach got too crowded. The condo provided beach towels, boogie boards, and beach mats. Snorkel equipment can be rented at the beach. As others have mentioned, a car is necessary to get to other beaches, shopping and restaurants, but it's all conveniently located. The unit was exceptionally clean and provided us with all the amenities of a home away from home. The kitchen cabinets were well stocked with dinnerware, glassware, cooking utensils and flatware. We thought that there was more than enough for a family of 4 to use each day. The only items we purchased was food!
We highly recommend this condo! It made our vacation even more relaxing and enjoyable.

We (two couples) had a wonderful time at this condo and can't wait to go back. The condo is exceptionally well-appointed with everything you could want for a Hawaii visit. The lanai provides a beautiful vantage for spectacular views all day topped off by unobstructed sunsets - a perfect place to toast the setting sun! The condo, grounds and pool area are very clean and well maintained and the entire complex is quiet and relaxing. The proximity to snorkeling, dining, shopping, site-seeing, running or just sitting on the beach was perfect - not so close as to be frantic, but close enough to be very accessible. We would love to be your guests again! Mahalo.

This was our second stay at Tila's beautiful condo across from Kahaluu, Turtle Beach. Everything was just as great as we remembered from our stay two years ago. The views to the ocean are magnificent from the Lanai and the convenience of walking just across the street to such a fabulous snorkeling beach is just great.Being right on Alii Drive makes it a great place for exercise. Whether you are running, walking or cycling having such a great track right in front is great. It is also tremendously convenient to the restaurants and shops up at the Keahou Center and to Kailua.The unit is well equipped in the kitchen and having a washer/dryer cuts down on the amount of clothes you have to pack. The Lanai is great for having meals or drinks and there is a good amount of beach and snorkeling gear. Don't miss all the fabulous Happy Hours. The Canoe Club, Kona Inn and Chillin' by the Bay in Kailua are great. A new place in the Keahou Shopping Center, the Tap Room is quite nice. Shiono Sushi in Kailua is fabulous. Merrimans in Waimea is worth the drive. Jackie Reyes in Kailua is a great locals restaurant, little pricey but worth it. Great pork at Killer Taco and excellent fish at Umekes both over in the industrial area of Kailua. Oh and the walk across the Kilauea crater, about 4-5 miles is definitely worth it. Enjoy

We stayed at multiple locations in Kona. From Hale Kona Kai condos, easy walking distance into the Kona bar/restaurant scene, to a VRBO house across the street from Magic Sands Beach, but feel we finally hit the jackpot at the Beach Villa's at Kahalu'u. The other locations have their own advantages. The Hale Kona Kai condos are walking distance to "downtown" Kona on Ali'i Drive. The magic Sands location was a great property, but Magic Sands Beach can be less beach and more surf spot than desired.

Kahalu'u Beach will always be the best place for beginners to snorkel in Kona. The "Menehune' built seawall protects the small bay from larger surf, and maybe larger fish!

When it comes to the combo of location to price, and size, you simply cannot beat location.

Around the corner to the south about 3/4 mile is a shopping center with groceries, restaurants, shops and a movie theater. It was not our goal on this trip to hang out in town. The beach, snorkeling and swimming was our first priority and this place is perfect! Pool and BBQ area was very nice. If I had any complaints at all, it would be the property across the street, the Outrigger. They have some sort of generators or something that regularly ,swoosh! swoosh!, while not bothersome during the day at night it drove me crazy!. simple solution...when making your reservation do take advantage of the a/C. close up the unit at night and you wont hear a thing! Very glad we opted for a/C. Ps The food at the Outrigger in the fancy restaurant was the worst meal I've ever had. Where's Gordon Ramsey when you need him!

Our stay at the condo was really nice! The lanai overlooks the pool one story down. The condo is very nicely decorated and very comfortable. We found everything in the kitchen we needed. We ate breakfast on the lanai each morning - our only meal there as we were out during the day and evening. The condo is right across the street from Kahalu'u beach that has beautiful sunsets. It can be busy at times, but the water is warm and there are turtles and colorful tropical fish that swim in the area. We really liked our stay - a nice large TV in the living room/kitchen area. 2 nice bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with large showers. The beds were very comfortable. There are full roman shades in the master bedroom so you can sleep comfortably in the dark (but you won't want to too long)!

We did a swim with dolphin tour (Sunlight on Water with Captain "China" Mike) - it was great! He would go ahead of the pod so they would come towards us as we snorkeled. We would get on the boat about 5-6 times to keep up with the dolphins. It was amazing! One of the stops - there 2 manta rays which stopped and circled under us. Just loved it!

At Keauhou Shopping Center:

KTa Super Stores - very nice store - has a great selection of anything you want - wine, cheese, chocolate...and the rest!

We ate dinner at Kenichi Pacific at the same shopping center. It was wonderful! I loved everything I ate (sushi)!

We visited Humpy's ale House for afternoon beers and appetizers of boiled shrimp and calamari. We went to Island Lava Java for an afternoon Lava Java Shake - had to go back a 2nd time for another shake and dinner - a spicy shrimp and penne pasta - it was really good!

The Owner had put together a book of restaurants/menues, beaches, activities, services and maps in case you needed additional help in finding your way around the island. We had t.v.s, internet, phones, beach toys and chairs. I think we had it all.

The decor of the condo was beautiful, very tasteful. It was extremely clean, bright and beyond welcoming. It had everything we needed in the kitchen to make us feel like we were in our own home. Having a washer and dryer made our stay easier. The bed and furniture were comfortable,the layout perfect, the view was fantastic. The parking lot didn't seem very full and we felt like we had a lot of privacy. There was an outdoor shower to wash off any sand that was brought back from the beach and that helped us keep the condo, bathing suits and beach toys clean.

It is well equipt, a great location, and has a nice pool. There are nice touches like wireless available (not mentioned in the condo description), and blackout curtains in the bedroom (great for coming from the mainland and jetlagging 4 hours ahead). I cook a lot with local ingredients not available to me in Colorado and this kitchen was pretty well equipt. A better set of knives would be my one suggestion the light cheap ones provided are pretty dangerous cutting the thick Island friut and veggies. I would like if you would have provided a few basic food staples like vinegar, sugar, mustard, ketsup, ect. I have stayed in some places where the stapes are all stored in the refrigerator door with a note to please replace something if you use it up. It was fun to use the items and see what others bought and found useful.It was nice that you provided dish soap. It really peves me when I rent a condo and there is nothing provided in the kitchen so, at least there was soap.

The only other small 'problems' I had with the condo was the shower head. Neither my husband or I liked it. Also, the fitted bed sheet was too small for the bed and kept creeping off at night, it was very annoying.

This condo worked out great for our family of 4. The layout was great - our kids liked having tvs in each room. We spent a lot of time on the lanai - the sunsets were great. The beds were comfortable. We used the pool and hot tub a lot - they were in good condition. The beach across the street was crowded during the day so we used it in the early morning or later evening. Saw lots of turtles. Would definitely run this property again.

Wonderful Condo!

The condo was great! It definitely exceeded our expections! We had a great view of Kahaluu Beach Park from the lanai. We took the short walk across the street every morning to snorkel before the beach got too crowded. The condo provided beach towels, boogie boards, and beach mats. Snorkel equipment can be rented at the beach. As others have mentioned, a car is necessary to get to other beaches, shopping and restaurants, but it's all conveniently located. The unit was exceptionally clean and provided us with all the amenities of a home away from home. The kitchen cabinets were well stocked with dinnerware, glassware, cooking utensils and flatware. We thought that there was more than enough for a family of 4 to use each day. The only items we purchased was food!We highly recommend this condo! It made our vacation even more relaxing and enjoyable.

I chose these Beach Villas based on the previous reviews. I thought they were accurate and right on. The condo itself was a two bedroom, two bath unit. We only used one bedroom, but them's the breaks. They were clean. The view was nice (although it did overlook a road, the pictures accurately showed it). And the unit was modern. When we ran out of shampoo, they let them for us. My one warning to folks would be that there is no elevator. If you pack lightly, this isn't a big deal. We didn't so we had to lug our stuff. Still, it was a small thing. I jumped into the pool only once -- who wants a pool when you have a great snorkeling spot across the street? You definitely would want a car if you stayed here. We cooked a lot. Also, I HIGHLY recommend getting the optional air conditioning. Our stay would have been miserable without it. Have fun.

This condo was wonderful - just like the pictures except for one thing...the view of the ocean was better than the pictures suggest! It was a great place to come back to in the evening or to lounge around during the day (including the nice pool). There was lots of beach gear (e.g., towels, cooler, chairs, mats) that made going to the beach more enjoyable. Aside from the good snorkeling beach right across the street, you will need a car to drive to other beaches or in to town. The drive to the Volcano Park took us about 2 hours and it's also a 30 minute drive north to the beaches of Mauna Kea and Hapuna. The condo was a great deal and well-situated to be close to various attractions.

We had a very nice stay at this condo. The views were beautiful. The only reccomendation I have is to add some more dinnerware so you don't have to spend your vacation washing dishes to reuse.

The property was wonderful. The location was excellent, right across the street from some of the best snorkeling on the island, perfect if you want a relaxed vacation with small children. The only negative comment I have is that the property is advertised as having air conditioning. However, the unit is locked and you have to pay a daily charge to get the key to use the air conditioner--not mentioned when I booked the property. Still, it was a good value and I would definitely stay there again.

Two couples stayed for one week, it was perfect with 2 bd. and 2 ba. Great view of beach across the street, the snorkeling is the best on the island. The pool and hot tub were also very nice. We had BBQ a couple of the nights, and met some very nice people. (Also from Montana) It was very clean, comfortable, and well stocked. We plan to return.

My Husband and I went to Hawaii to meet my sister and her husband to celebrate our anniversaries. We though it would be nice to rent a condo. We loved the Beach Villas at Kahaluu Villa 1-202 condo that we rented. Everything was perfect! The layout of the condo, the patio, the pool, the beach across the street and the location. We would definatly stay there again.

Beautifully done condo, great location - we had a great time here, best VRBO we stayed in. My husband was bothered a bit by street noise at night - I was only bothered by him wanting to close the window rather than leave it open to the breeze. Location is super - right across the street from a super snorkeling beach for the whole family (easy for the kids to enjoy), and we loved being able to wander between beach and home. Condo had everything we wanted and more. Really remarkable paint job inside too - nicely done! Days on the beach followed by kids swimming in the pool while Dad grills dinner, eat dinner on our private lanai at sunset, and then veg in front of a movie on the flat screen. Very sweet life! Comfy beds, great showers, conveniences of home, no sign of pests. Didn't see much of other residents, but those we saw were friendly. Don't have a single negative thing to say about this property (and we did have a few about the other places we stayed!)

Great vacation getaway!

I found this property through an internet search, google. My husband and four teenagers stayed in one of your condos. 1st, our condo was the "perfect" location. We could not have been more perfectly placed. Georgeous. It is the perfect area for snorkeling. I would have changed a few things.

Not having daily maid service convinced my husband and I to only take the children to places "with" daily maid service from now on. Cleaning up after the kids and picking up after my husband was not a vacation for me and was more stressful on my family.

We did inquire about maid service and were told that it was not available daily.

I wish there had been an outside shower. The beach across the street is out of this world wonderful. And, they have outdoor showers. But, when you walk across the street and up the walk you still have sand and salt in your shoes and beach bag. I hated cleaning up the salt and sand after my kids came up from the beach. I was trying to keep the condo clean.

I was lucky that someone had told me about purchasing land's end water shoes prior to our trip. On the Big Island, they are a must have. That tip would be helpful to people, especially since you all don't have a lot of shopping centers.

I think that pre-arranged delivery service of fruit/breakfast sandwiches would be something some of your guests would appreciate. They had a sandwich truck on the beach for lunchtime but the food was not very good.

Your Island has so much natural, wonderful food I would think that by ordering the night before someone could make a lot of money with deliveries.

The only other issue we had was that our flight was delayed the morning we were due to check out and the property manager (via the maid) was not accomodating to allow us to pay to stay in our condo for a few more hours. Instead, we spent our final five hours in HI at the airport. My children still refer to those five hours as the longest of their life.

We didn't want to spend the high prices for Hawaii hotels so we searched and found this condo. We were a little hesitent about getting a condo just because you never know what you're going to get even when you can view pictures. Well, we got everything we were promised and more! We couldn't stop talking about how great of a find this condo was. The private parking was perfect. We felt very safe and secure. The condo was as clean as could be. It felt very new with nice appliances (flat screen TV, Bose stereo, dishwasher, air conditioning, washer and dryer, etc.) and wonderful bathrooms (two of them). The master bedroom was wonderful and the regular bathroom was just as good with just a little less space. The livingroom furniture was comfortable. The balcony was so much fun. We spent a lot of time out around the table (under the fan) having meals or relaxing and watching the ocean. I will recommend this condo to everyone going to the Big Island.

This condo far exceeded our expectations for the Kailua-Kona area. It has an awesome location, across from a renowned snorkeling and beginning surfing beach. Public transportation is readily available via a beach bus that will take you to other beaches, or to shop in Kona. Close to a shopping center for all of your basic needs. The condo itself is stylish, comfortable, beautifully maintained, and well-equipped. It was a real pleasure to cook and enjoy a relaxing dinner in the comfort of a lovely home-away-from-home. And the views were magnificent at sunset! The pool area is immaculate, and well planned for use by both children and adults. Our only concern during our stay was a bit of noise from the street traffic--though we really considered it minimal. We heartily recommend this villa unit, and consider it to be an exceptional value. We are definitely looking forward to our next stay!

This condo was a wonderful alternative to a hotel. The beach across the street was beautiful with outstanding snorkeling! We had two adults and a teenager so it was great to have two bedrooms and two bathrooms.

The lanai was one of my favorite parts - we ate several meals out there - watching the ocean and the people at the beach. Sometimes eating out while on vacation gets tiring - it was great being able to cook in the kitchen and enjoy dinner in the condo.

If we ever return to Kona we will most definitely come back to the same condo. The feeling of a home away from home was wonderful. Additionally the condo had many fantastic extras - such as some boogie boards, beach towels, dvd's, and guide books.

The absolute ONLY complaint I have was the rusty/falling apart rack in the shower. However it seems pretty trivial when compared to all of the great points. I truly hope to return one day!

This condo is just plain awesome. Starting with the interior that is well-decorated, spacious rooms, gorgeous ocean view (dining table is on the ocean-facing lanai).Location is wonderful - great snorkeling just across the road and short drive to anywhere you want. Warning: this condo spoiled me so much that I find it very hard to find vacation rentals for my other trips! The price is right and Chuck is a great person to deal with - he was able to accomodate all my requests. Next time I am on the Big Island I will definitely stay here.

For convenience to Keahou attractions, this is a great location. It really is right across the street from Kahaluu beach, which has the best easily accessible snorkeling on the island. There are amazing archaeological sites a short walk away (including several major heiau now being restored), the hotel across the street has good food, shoreside dining and live entertainment, and you can get surfing lessons just down the street. The condo is large, very clean and modern with a clothes washer and dryer (very convenient), has access to a swimming pool you'll probably never use since the snorkeling is so great, a well-equipped kitchen, a lanai, and little extras like snorkeling gear. I know it sounds like they paid me to say all this, but they didn't and I really loved this place.
